Workings

The opening carrying value of the shares on ABC balance sheet = 60,000

Profit made at the end of the period = 40,000

Dividends paid = 10,000

Attributable income to share holders = 40000-10000 = 30,000

ABC portion of attributable profit = 30000*30% = 9,000

Carrying value at the end of the year = opening carrying value + portion of the attributable profit

=60000+9000=69000
